It was an unusual Sunday Noon when I was watching a movie on
the TV with my nephew- Piu. Now if you follow my blogs, you would know a little
about Pihu. I call it unusual cause these days I do not get to meet Pihu that
Often. He is growing up and has school regime to follow with his various other
classes including one in Karate. Karate Kid as I would often call him these
days, has always this complain that I am not spending enough time with him.
Point noted and guilty as found. In the hustle and screeching bustle of my
life, I have kind of forgotten living. In the endless pursuit of our career
goals, personal ambition and working towards making a brighter future, read a
healthy and “financially independent” future, we live too much in stress.

It is the dream that does not let us sleep. And this
sleeplessness is causing all the confusion. I somehow get jealous with people
who have lot of time and less of work. Seriously yes. I envy their carefree
life. My deep thoughts were broken by the sudden voice of my nephew who was curious
to know what is Bucket list as discussed in the movie. Yes we were watching the
superhot and awe inspiring mvie- The Bucket list. Well talk of co-incidences.

It is then I paused my thought and so did my TV, and went
ahead explaining Pihu about the Bucket list, meaning and relevance to the movie
so he could concur the plot well and enjoy the film. The curiosity did not end
there and Pihu was compelled to explore the concept of Bucket list more. Being
his usual buck, the query has to obviously stop at me. I was not taken for
surprise when he asked what is my Bucket list and if I have thought about him
while making one. Hmm Tough questions the kids ask.

While we do contemplate a lot of “to-dos” in life but I have not made any bucket list for self
except few random wishes here and there. It was time that we decided to take a
small break post the end of movie and discuss it further. Pihu agreed and that
gave me sometime during the movie to think about my Bucket list.

My Bucket list

If I have to think about the top 5 things that may feature
in my Bucket list, basis the top of mind recall, I would think of the
following-

Own a house, a car, some property
and become a successful entrepreneur and then do not do much work but write poetry in my plush lawn :)

Yes off course I wanted to go
around the world and see some magnificent places

Open a charitable trust in my name
for the needy ones ranging from Human to animals. So that I can give back some
love to the world full of suffering

This one is special- I want to be
among Top 5 Bloggers in the world and be known to everyone across the Globe. It
is rather tad too ambitious but if there has to be something like bucket list,
it has to be this.

Give the world of happiness to my
family including my parents. I will spend as much time with my family as possible.

I know everyone has their own dreams and aspirations, well
these were mine. How about you?
